    Okay, to be honest and forthright, there are a handful of super brand new HD DVDs releasing this week including The Reaping and A Mighty Heart, which we're sure are great movies in their own right. But we don't care, because we have Michael Bay's visual mind-screw, robot porn of explosive goodness that is Transformers on HD DVD this week. And, need we mention that Transformers is exclusive to the HD DVD format? Because, it is. Watch this movie, watch it in full 1080p glory and be amazed at the extra content Paramount stuck in this HD release. Commence drooling ... now.

    Two new HD DVD releases grace retail shelves tomorrow which, if you think about it, is two more than were released today, yesterday or even Saturday. Deep ... we know. Anyway, this week brings the release of Twilight Zone: The Movie and the most expensive comedy ever made Evan Almighty. And hopefully someone will purchase that movie, because they have a lot of cash to make up seeing that the movie's box office numbers were less then stellar. That's it for this week, enjoy your HD DVD viewing. HD DVD Movie Releases: October 9th Evan Almighty Twilight Zone: The Movie

    This week's HD DVD excitement is plentiful in shear numbers, but not so much in terms of "newness". You see, this week Warner studios decided to re-issue a bunch of their previous HD DVD releases which are already available on store shelves. No, there wasn't anything wrong with the previous versions and no they didn't add anything new to the HD DVDs, it's just that the previous versions were the more expensive combo-HD DVD. So, this week they decided to re-release those combo format HD DVDs and make them plain Jane HD DVDs, thus making them a tad bit cheaper. Exciting no? But don't fret new content HD DVD purchasers, because there is goodness in the form of Top Gun this week and who can honestly say that they don't like Top Gun? Full list of new (and re-issued) HD DVDs is lovingly listed below. HD DVD Movie Releases: October 2nd The Ant Bully (re-issue) The Departed (re-issue) Dreaming Nevada The Fountain (re-issue) Galapagos Good Night, and Good Luck (re-issue) Happy Feet (re-issue) Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (re-issue) Lady in the Water (re-issue) The Lake House (re-issue) Letters from Iwo Jima (re-issue) A Room with a View Rumor Has It ...

    It's one of those uber exciting HD DVD release weeks featuring a slew of new movies including some spartan killing. No, not Master Chief Spartans, ancient 300 Spartans! That's right, the movie 300 is available this week on HD DVD featuring exclusive features and some nifty movie editing tricks. It's what we call a "must have". Other notable releases this week include Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead, Shooter and Planet Earth (again). We say again, because it has already been released to HD DVD in April, but that was the BBC version. This is the US Discovery Channel version which is nearly identical to the BBC version except Sigourney Weaver does the narration. But again, the real sugar coated gem this week is 300. Go. Get. It. Tomorrow! HD DVD Movie Releases: July 31st 300 Darkman Hot Fuzz IMAX: Blue Planet Planet Earth (US Version) Sea of Love Shaun of the Dead Shooter

    We warned you last week that June 19th wouldn't bring any happiness and it looks like we were spot on. There are no HD DVDs coming out this week, because movie studios have a thing for clustering their releases on the same day. Oh well, next week we promise there will be new HD DVD material, so that's always good. And you could always be thankful that your HD format of choice isn't rotting away. See, you have to be positive, even if it is at the expense of other's HD format. HD DVD Movie Releases: June 19th No HD DVD releases this week.
